How to consume Chicken With Gravy (Mixture), Idli without glucose spikes

Portion Control

Keep your portions smaller to reduce the total carbohydrate load, which can help minimize spikes in glucose levels.

Protein Addition

Include a lean protein source like grilled chicken or tofu with your meal to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Incorporate Healthy Fats

Add healthy fats such as a small serving of avocado or a sprinkle of nuts to help slow digestion and keep blood sugar levels stable.

Vegetable Inclusion

Add non-starchy vegetables like spinach, kale, or bell peppers to your plate to increase fiber intake, which can help modulate blood sugar response.

Choose Whole Grains

If you enjoy idli, try mixing in some whole grains like quinoa or adding a small amount of oats to the batter.

Timing of Meals

Spread out your meals and snacks throughout the day to prevent large glucose spikes; consider having smaller, balanced meals every 3-4 hours.

Hydration

Drink plenty of water before and during meals, as it can help with digestion and potentially reduce blood sugar spikes.

Mindful Eating

Eat slowly and savor your food, which can aid in digestion and help you recognize satiation earlier.

Physical Activity

Engage in light exercise, such as a walk, after meals to help utilize glucose and improve insulin sensitivity.

Monitor Ingredients

When making gravy, use less refined flour or cornstarch and consider using a thickener like almond flour or just reducing the amount to limit carbohydrate intake.
